To protect your asset, landlord insurance is a must.

We strongly recommend you use a specialist landlord insurance provider because many general insurance providers offering cover for landlords may not provide sufficient cover.

While we don’t believe you should scrimp on insurance cover, (click here to read our guide of what you need to consider when comparing cover and quotes), we do believe in shopping around, and checking out special offers to ensure you get the best deal.

We aren’t licensed insurance brokers and as real estate agents, so we cannot, and we will not recommend an insurance company.

However, we can save you some of the shopping around legwork and highlight offers from companies which our clients seem to get the best results from their claims compared to others.

If you are looking for a specialist investment insurance company, now may be the time to take advantage of one of these current offerings:
